Oh. Jeez. This book was....dismal, was the word I used when I was talking to Steph about reading. I read 1-5 together and very effect of being able to roll with it. That reading six made me sure I never handled Breaking Dawn alone either.

I'm amazed I ever made it to the end of this book. ( )

Cuando todo parece perdido, a veces, el azar nos concede segundas oportunidades. Pero Ever y Damen saben que su condena no tiene remedio: pasarán la eternidad juntos y sin poder tocarse. Sin embargo, un giro del destino les ofrece una salida... a cambio de un gran sacrificio: Ever debe escoger entre liberar a Damen o buscar el Árbol de la Vida, cuyo fruto podría salvar al resto de inmortales.
¿Será capaz Ever de sacrificar el destino de cientos de almas por egoísmo? ¿Se arriesgará a perder su amor por un fin superior?

Em Infinito, o sexto e último livro da série, após derrotarem seus inimigos mais temidos, Ever e Damen começam uma nova jornada para que ele se livre do veneno que está em seu corpo. Se encontrarem o antídoto, finalmente serão capazes de viver a paixão pela qual anseiam há séculos.

A busca, porém, leva-os a um terreno desconhecido e pavoroso - as profundezas de Summerland. Lá, eles descobrirão a origem obscura e inimaginável de seu relacionamento e serão obrigados a encarar uma dolorosa verdade: o destino tem motivos para mantê-los separados. Agora, o futuro irá depender de uma única decisão, que poderá pôr em risco tudo o que eles têm. Inclusive a eternidade.

I read all of these books, and while I really liked them at first, I gradually grew to dislike them more and more. I find Noel's passive voice writing style SO distracting that I end up fixing her wording in my head while I read. There are only so many -ing words that I can handle before I start to go nuts. How did this get past her editor? This is something I teach my middle schoolers not to do!

I liked the central plot- the characters were interesting, and the alchemy take on the immortal thing was nice.

Why, though, would she make immortality seem scientific only to then allow the characters to conjure up BMWs from thin air?

And the biggest problem, in my opinion, is the fact that there is so much in this book (and the series) that younger readers would love... and then Damen and Ever have scenes worthy of a Harlequin. Four times? Really? She's seventeen.

The last thing I need to get off my chest just totally floored me while I was reading. I really want anyone reading this to turn to page 263. This is a scene where Ever is trying to get her sister, Sabine, to accept her for who she is. She says things like, "Your tendency toward self-righteousness and bullheadedness, your penchant for shunning me instead of trying to understand me, well, it scares me just as much as my display of immortal party tricks just scared you." Seriously. She's seventeen! I have two master's degrees, and I don't even talk like that!
